Media wars- Mainstream media the greatest tool to sway public opinion in favor of war…

To this day many people still see mainstream media as a good reliable source of information but is this the case? . Again i will point out why people need to find other sources of info from alternative media outlets etc and not to souly rely on what the tv screen is saying. Throughout the decades media has been used to sway public opinion from presidential elections to the invasion of sovereign country’s. Most mainstream media outlets such as BBC,CNN and FOX usually tend to skirt around the edges of events without really delving into the story or if needs be they make the story. In the 1950’s the CIA launched ‘Operation Mockingbird’ this operation was to subdue free press and to control what was and was not for public consumption. In 1948 Frank Wesner was director of (OSP) Office of policy coordination which then ended up becoming the espionage and counter-intelligence branch of the Central Intelligence Agency. The director Frank Wesner was told to create a organization that would specialize in “propaganda, economic warfare; preventive direct action, including sabotage, anti-sabotage, demolition and evacuation measures; subversion against hostile states, including assistance to underground resistance groups, and support of indigenous anti-Communist elements in threatened countries of the free world.” Soon after the establishment of this organization Frank Wesner launched ‘Operation Mockingbird’ which also aimed to control not only domestic news but international news outlets as well. The CIA at one stage had over 400 agents planted throughout the media world from newspapers to Mainstream media outlets to small magazines. This operation was one that aimed to pull the wool over peoples eyes which in large part succeeded up. For decades Wesner was trying to find other ways to convince the public that communism was a very real threat to them and their way of living. Fast forward to today and we have another bogey man. The threats of terror attacks after 9/11 was ramped up turning public opinion in the direction the government wished. The ramping up of FEAR driven media was one of the main reasons the Iraqi invasion went ahead barely opposed by the public. Now we all know that what we were told at the time about chemical weapons etc was all a lie a pretext to invade but hindsight is a wonderful thing. The reasons behind the invasion are still debated. These tactics serve to bolster those individuals and organizations arguments for war playing on peoples emotions and also sowing chaos among peoples of what ever country finds itself in the cross hairs. If we move on to the NATO lead invasion of Libya which marked another turning point in the media/information wars. Media outlets ran with the narratives of the establishments without evidence or a clear idea of what was actually taking place inside the country at the time. This lead to the death of thousands and the mass lynching of African migrants who the media labeled mercenaries of Colonel Gaddafi. The lies continued reports came thick and fast that Libyan forces were actually taking Viagra to rape woman and that the Colonels forces were slaughtering people on the streets.. (http://humanrightsinvestigations.org/2011/07/07/libya-ethnic-cleansing/) There was no evidence at all to suggest this was true or that mercenaries were in fact being brought in to fight for Gaddafi. This just turned out to be another feeble to play on the heart strings of the public and to ultimately push public opinion in favor of a NATO led invasion of Libya. During the staged revolution that was taking place it was being sold to the world as a revolution of the people but as we know now this was also nothing more than a manufactured lie for the reasons i stated above. As the conflict was in full swing some mainstream outlets namely Al Jazeera and Sky news went as far as showing videos of celebrations that were purportedly taking place in Libya’s Green square in the capital of the country. The video and images actually turned out to have been a staged event that had taken place in Qatar.(http://stopwarcrimes.wordpress.com/2011/08/22/al-jazeeras-fake-green-square/) Throughout the coverage images from other revolutions and celebrations were also aired for example BBC showed pictures of an event that looks to actually have taken place somewhere in India while the crowd waved the Indian flag. This is an insult of the peoples intelligence. The BBC hoped that maybe no one would notice these deceptions. If we fast forward to the Syrian conflict we will see the exact same tactics being applied to sway public opinion. One of those most noticeable fabrications of events on the ground was that of the nuclear attack that mainstream media outlets portrayed as an attack by government forces on the Damascus subberb Gouta. But an episode of the ‘Truthseeker’ aired detailing the ways in which this event had been falsly portrayed and even how some of the coverage was edited to suit the narrative that the Syrian army launched the weapon.(http://seeker401.wordpress.com/2011/08/26/the-total-farce-of-the-green-square-scenes-and-the-reasons-nato-attacked/comment-page-1/) What had not been shown often was the fact that fighters of one of the main fighting groups Al-Nusra had been caught on the border a week or so before the nuclear attack with a quantity of ‘Sarin Nerve Gas’ That along with propaganda videos of masked men claiming to be testing nuclear elements on animals.(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJ1C4evK06I) In fact members of Jabhat Al-Nusra had told an Associated Press that they had mishandled Saudi supplied chemical weapons which caused the Nuclear incident in Ghouta.(http://www.globalresearch.ca/jabhat-al-nusra-rebels-admit-responsibility-for-chemical-weapons-attack/5347485) The fight against ‘Communism’ having been replaced with the fight against ‘Terrorism’ to adapt to the modern geo political situation we see today. IS is now the big enemy with constant coverage by the MSM along with a huge propaganda campaign utilizing social media and other platforms to reach the masses. Or we find pick another supposed enemy ‘Russia’ the media in the West scorns and demonizes ‘Russia’ as an aggressor against Ukraine and the ‘Free World’ in general but the people of those Western nations seem not to agree with this analysis. Is it because of a mass awakening to the fact that mainstream media lies ? At any rate in today’s world media is used more than ever to sway the peoples of the world example of which is that of the enemy ‘ISIS’ which came along months after the push to invade Syria collapsed and the war hawks had to back off. Again the push to enter Syria was proposed but this time it was the ‘Islamic state’ which was being used as a pretext for war. IS who seemed to come out of nowhere to be one of the most feared terror groups in the world was ultimately magnified 100x because of the constant coverage. This happened because of the medias constant fear mongering they basically put a magnifying glass on a group which blew them up to be something they are not. Yes the people within ‘IS’ are animals naive brainwashed people but we need to understand they are just another pawn which is being used in the geo political game which we see playing out today across the globe.

Report released on the investments by companies and institutions in Cluster Bomb munition producers

7 UK firms finance globally banned cluster bombs CMC member organisation PAX published a report on companies and institutions that have invested in the globally banned cluster bombs which are being used in places like Ukraine and Syria. Even in Laos almost 50 years since the bombs were dropped are still effecting residents of the surrounding areas to this very day. In the report it highlights financial institutions that have invested in the cluster bomb manufacturers. The report also hightlights those institutions that have disinvested from cluster bomb producers and subsequently established clear policies that make sure no more investments would be made in the future by the institution. The report was first published on 29 October 2009, and subsequent updates were published on 14 April 2010, 25 May 2011, 12 June 2012, and 12 December 2013. The report lists institutions who have been investing in these munitions from 2011 to 2014. 7 of those institutions are British and include insurance companies to asset management companies all come up in the ‘Worldwide Investments In Cluster Munitions’ report. International laws state these weapons are illegal to use because they are indiscriminate in nature which does not differentiate between fighter or civilian. Unexploded left overs usually is left after the detonation of one of these bombs leading to deaths not only of those hit by the bomb but also those who may happen to live in the surrounding area in some cases decades later like in Laos.

Brisbane G20 Total Lock Down Of Peoples Lives... Nothing to see here but Kualas.

As we watched the G20 take place in Australia you will have noticed MSM(Main Stream Media) was none stop with its Putin mania and Abbots comment that he would "shirt front" president Putin. Maybe you also got to see the Kuala bears the MSM turned the G20 into a complete circus with its coverage, They neglected to really talk about what was being discussed among the world leaders and about the problems we face today. First off we need to talk about the preparations for the summit. Just like we see everywhere and anywhere this summit takes place the surrounding areas or even the whole city is deemed a security zone huge fences are erected steel cages hundreds of police, secret service you name it. The city comes to a stand still and as the article "12 ways G20 Has Turned Brisbane Into a Orwellian Wasteland" states "Police are in total control" Buzzfeed news actually ordered an "Ubercade" just like the motorcade you would usually see at such an event a president or a prime minister, anyway they did this and found exactly what we have come to expect of the the growing global police state complete shutdown of peoples day to day lives. They describe being at several protests during the day while they drove around Brisbane in this "Ubercade" explaining that police heavily outweighed protestors and that any undesirables were swiftly taken care off by the local robocop. Many people actually packed up and left Brisbane because of the G20 coming, they new it would disrupt normal life for however long needed. These type of measures are increasingly the norm during such events and the people don't like it they are angry and rightfully so. In my article the ' The World is Entering a Multi-polar Phase in Global Governance' i talked about the rise of the BRICS nations and indeed since that article many developments have taken place it seemed the BRICS nations stole the show during the summit. The rise of the BRICS is a very real rival to U.S. hegemony and dominance. Chinese President Xi Jinping added that BRICS cooperation should not only boost the global economy, but also ensure global peace. As seen in Syria when Russia and China stood up to another illegal war being pushed by certain establishments and individuals within those establishments this was for me the first clear sign of opposition rising. The U.S. president and his cohorts sat and discussed how else to put pressure on Russia during the summit instead of working on real solutions to very real issues, Obama was more interested in facing down his rival or trying to... The rise of the BRICS and a clear rival to the Petro dollar system is seen as a major threat by those who need to maintain the status quo for their own benefit. No matter what those MSM outlets who fail to acknowledge the facts and would rather portray a false reality to the public will and are gradually loosing the information war. The rise of this opposition does not stop with the BRICS and those in high places. People right across the world have been rising, pockets of resistance have sprung up all over the globe against the status quo the people are crying out for change. We need to realize no matter how much we may think we hate all politicians or all establishments we need to be realistic and understand those in power can be a force for good "actions speak louder than words" yes they do a balance is needed in our world and the BRICS is bringing that balance. A new world order is upon us but as i have said before it is up to us the people what type of order do we want, the people have decided this order is not working for our world people are dieing daily inequality is the worst it has ever been. Change is upon us we the people must keep the pressure going keeping up the good work fighting the information war daily fighting the lies and bias untruth of those MSM who look to deceive the people “If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” ― Malcolm X

The Gardai just another tentical of thee establishment, striking out like a wounded animal...

Parts of Ireland tonight seen and experienced first hand aggression against the community's by Gardai, the Gardai seem to have changed tactics in its fight to help instal the water meters without the consent of the people living in those areas, and to quell those who have taken to the streets to voice their anger. This is just another sign of the establishments starting to crash under pressure from the people of Ireland, like a wounded animal the Gardai strike in the interests of the few. You are either with people or against the people, for a long time now Gardai have targeted activists through political policing targeting republicans day and daily just like their comrades the PSNI in the North of the Island. It needs to be understood that the Gardai are just another tentical of the establishment, individual Gardai members need to make a conscious decision not to take part in these type of actions against the community no more, the people are slowly but surly coming off their knees and at the end of the day you will have to answer to those very people you attack and restrict from expressing their democratic right to protest....

The Continuation Of Military Use By U.S. Armed Forces And CIA Needs To Be Brought To An End In Ireland

Some may not already know this but for well over a decade armed forces of the U.S. have been using Shannon Airport as a stop off point before continuing on to their bastions in Europe and the Middle East, Indeed Ireland itself is becoming one of these bastions, well over 2 million U.S. troops have passed through Ireland to fight illegal wars and conflicts around the world. Not only is Shannon being used as a staging post for the U.S. armed forces but is also being used for operations associated with the CIA and its 'extraordinary rendition program' The use of Shannon Airport by U.S. forces means Ireland is complicit and has been complicit in these conflicts which has seen millions of innocent men women and children perish, from Iraq to Afghanistan to Libya, this list is endless. This is a stain on the Irish nation and it needs to be addressed, of course we have had many people who have stood up and have even went to jail trying to highlight this most well known being 79 year old peace activist Margaretta D'Arcy, in which during her trial she tried to make a citizens arrest of the judge for collaborating in war crimes. D'Arcy was also convicted in 2012 for peacefully opposing the use of Shannon airport by U.S. military by blocking two flights from landing at Shannon. At the time of the protest, Galway Alliance Against War issued the following statement. Over the past twelve years consecutive Irish governments have colluded in Washington’s campaign of wars from Afghanistan to Yemen, in which up to 2 million people have perished. By allowing the US military to use Irish airspace and Shannon airport to wage these wars we have become a willing accessory to mass murder. We have blood on our hands…we feel we have no alternative but to block the runway at Shannon to highlight Irish involvement in this carnage. Not only is the complicity of Ireland in these wars immoral it is in violation of aviation, human rights and international law. In a Booklet 'Shannon Airport, War and Renditions' which was jointly published by Shannonwatch, The Peace And Neutrality Alliance(PANA) and The Irish Anti-War Movement(IAWM) highlights these violations... The booklet outlines four key areas in which the Irish authorities are deemed to be inefficient: The application of aviation law in relation to the transportation of munitions of war and other explosive substances Suspected breaches of international and European human rights law, as well as domestic Irish law, in relation to known and suspected involvement in rendition Possible breaches of international humanitarian law Policy and practice relating to the concept of Irish neutrality In 2011 alone a total 1,142 'Civilian Planes' with munitions on board landed at Shannon airport this was revelad in answer to a question posed by Sinn Fein TD Padraig Mac Lochlainn Shannonwatch, the organization which monitors foreign military use of Shannon airport and campaigns against it, said the figures “make a mockery of the notion of Irish neutrality”. On its website, a spokesperson is quoted as saying: “Like Kuwait and Kyrgyzstan, Ireland and Shannon have now become staging posts for US invasions and occupation. “The figures make a mockery of the notion of Irish neutrality, and show that successive governments have relinquished all interest in maintaining an independent Irish foreign policy.” John Lannon, the booklet’s author, says the use of Shannon Airport has contributed to suffering and human rights abuse for over a decade: “The consistent disregard for national and international laws has meant that Shannon has been directly involved in the suffering and death of innocent people – from men tortured in Guantanamo Bay, to children in Afghanistan who are injured or orphaned by airstrikes and roadside bombs.” These operations being carried out are not sanctioned by the Irish people but of a few who are in the back pockets of the U.S. and E.U. whatever the puppet masters say goes, but there is only so far you can push a people before they begin to rise and this is what we may very well be seeing in Ireland today. End Ireland's Complicity In These Crimes Against Humanity Now Ireland Says NO!

The People Are Rising It's About Time The Political Elite Listen...

Back in 2012 spokeswoman for Environment minister Phil Hogan confirmed that over 300,000 households would have fixed water charges, she continued saying up to 90% of households, which can be metered, will be metered by the end of 2014 at a cost of 500m Euros, Of tax payers money. Along with the huge price tag for the installation of these meters Taoiseach Enda Kenny revealed that the expected annual bill for water would be around 240 Euros, with a standing charge of 50 Euros. People have already been paying for these water taxes. We are now seeing nation wide movements of the people against the installation of the water meters along with the charges forced upon them, with daily protests and demonstrations from Cork to Dundalk, along with the sometimes heavy handed tactics of the Garda Siochana and even the workers themselves striking out at protestors. It's encouraging to see that grass roots movements are growing faster than ever before in opposition to Austerity, Bank Bailouts, the wholesale of our nations national resources, it's crucial that people show their anger towards the status quo, turning a blind eye is not an option anymore... The installations have not been going as planned it would seem as workers struggle to install anywhere, everywhere Irish water go the Irish people will be found, in opposition, those in power don't care one bit about the people, those in power see themselves as accountable to no one, this is what will come to bite them as the anger simmers it will get to the point the people will say enough is enough and get rid of these traitors. The people see this charge for a basic human right as a scandal and rightfully so. Tomorrow 11/10/2014 people will gather in Dublin from all over Ireland in what will be one of the largest national demonstrations in decades in opposition to the immoral and unfair taxation of water, if you can get there you should it's time to fight back as a nation...
